Chapter 4: 4 Prologue ④

She is the new mother who would even be the Madonna of the class (a dead letter) if she were dressed in the school's uniform, but she is the master of the school and even more powerful in the magical society.

"I'm sorry, I really wish I could spend more time with you, but I have to go to work ......."

 With that, she left the house. She left without me.

 In Marino's defense, she is probably busy, too. I understand that. But how could she think that on the very day she made the bombshell announcement that she was going to become a new mother, she would be unable to see me for a while because of her work?

 As for myself, I have no problem with it. I don't really feel unhappy because I have been reborn in this body, or perhaps I have been replaced.

 However, Kosuke Takioto had to move out of his house because he suddenly had new parents after a series of various misfortunes. He must be filled with unfathomable anxiety, but his new mother is not by his side and has gone off to work.

 It's almost as if Kosuke Takioto is wondering why he is no longer a hermit in the game. He is so high-spirited that he will say things like, "Maji ↑↑↑," "Oh, my God, that's impossible! or "Isn't that girl really cute? Let's pick her up. You play the role of a thug, and I'll play the role of a hero who quickly saves the day".

I really feel sorry for him. ......

 Well, let's leave Kosuke Takioto aside and do what we have to do.

"Even so, isn't this ...... too much?"

 What is placed in front of you is a thick envelope. The most important thing to remember is that you should not be afraid to ask for help. The first thing you need to do is to find a good place to live. One thing can be said.

Marino-san has lost her sense of money.

 From the envelope, she pulls out a bundle of bills. That's 1,000,000 Japanese yen, which is more than you could spend if you ordered a special sushi delivery all week.

 You can spend it all! He said with a smile, "You can spend it all! Do you want me to buy a brand bag or a luxury watch? What else seems expensive ...... in this world, like magic tools?

I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do with it.

 I'm Kosuke Takioto to begin with,......, right?

"I can use magic......, right?

 No, there's no way I can't use it. The school he was accepted to is a magic academy. How could someone who is not a magician get in?

Magic?

 It's a miracle that can't be proven by science. The most important thing to remember is that you should not be afraid to use it.

 I mean, if I can't use it, won't I be expelled from the school?

 If so, how would you use it?

If it were a game, all I would have to do is click on it with the mouse.

 It's not a screen and you can't click on it. You can't even see your status to begin with. I would like to be able to see my HP or MP, but I guess that's impossible.

 Wait a minute.

 If he was admitted to the school because he was a magician, then are there any textbooks or books on magic left in the school?

I don't really feel like it, but I think I'll go ransack the house. ......

 He got up from his chair and left the living room.

 As the game's setting suggests, Kosuke Takioto's academic abilities are not as flattering as he would like them to be. The tests sealed in his textbooks and notebooks are only circled about half the time. Also, the pictures and self-portraits in the magic history books and Japanese textbooks are covered with low-level scribbles. I thought to myself, "What the hell is this guy doing, he should take his lessons more seriously," but the graffiti disappeared from the textbooks a year ago. But a year ago, the scribbles were gone. Now there are magic formulas, magic circles, and other things about magic everywhere.

 I close the history of magic book. Then I picked up a magic book with a picture of a monkey holding a book, a very beautiful magic book.

Magic Even Monkeys Can Understand.

 I flip through the book, which is still clean and appears to have no writing, not even a crease, not even a trace of having been opened. There were some questions that came to my mind, but I thought about them for a while and could not come up with any answers, so I finally gave up thinking about them.

 Let's read it anyway.

 

 If I believe what is written in the book, it seems that every living being born in this world has magical power, and that there is such power in the atmosphere.

 This is the same as what I saw in the game.

 And the miracles, the magic, that is created by using that magic power. They create fire, water, wind, earth, and even metal.

 However, since magic power is consumed in proportion to the miracles that are wrought, wizards must have a certain level of magic power. The biggest difference between ordinary people and wizards is this amount of magical power. It seems.

 If it were the same as in a game, Kosuke Takioto would boast a level of magical power that would make even the school's teachers' tongues wag. If only in terms of magical power.

I tried to do as it says, but I think it's this one. But there's something weird about it. ......

 If I were to use a metaphor, it would be as if the entire body has become a new sensory organ, like the eyes and ears perceiving light and sound. And yet, I can feel that strange, warm, magical kind of power overflowing through my whole body, and at the same time, I think there is something similar outside my body as well. And the outside magic is softly touching my body, and to be honest, it tickles me.

How come as soon as I became aware of it, I could feel it so much?"

 Well, I don't have an answer even if I think about it. Then, let's try to use magic. If I could use it, I would be able to say it was magic after all.

Let's see, "Light.

 The magic of light, "Light," which was written to be easy for ordinary people to use.

 To be honest, I was skeptical that even "light" could really be used. I was skeptical. But the effect was immediate, as soon as I said the word.

Seriously, ......?"

 A light source floating in front of you. He cut the sky around the light source with his hand. I check to see if there are any strings or other objects acting as wires, but nothing strikes me. This time, I slowly move my hand closer to the light source.

"Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha, soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"

 But there was no contact with the light source. Nor was there any heat. Just a hand piercing and cutting through the light source. But the light source remained in its initial form and did not move an inch.

 When I stopped supplying it with magic power, the mysterious light source immediately disappeared.

 I turned off the lights in the room and closed the curtains. Then I used the magic again.

 With a flash, the dimly lit room was illuminated by a mysterious ball of light. I stopped the supply of magic power and chanted for it to disappear. The ball of light immediately lost its light and the area became dimly lit.

 I cast the light spell again, illuminating the room.

I can't believe it. ......

 The light sphere produced is not a light with heat powered by electricity. The light ball is not a heat generated light powered by electricity. The supply of magic power is immediately stopped and the light is turned off again.

 When the magic is activated, the area is illuminated with a flash.

 Every time I see it, I am moved and drawn to the mysterious power of magic.

 You may wonder what I am doing. What I am doing is the first magic that a magician learns, called "light. It is the first magic that people in kindergarten or elementary school learn. It's not surprising that you would say, "What, you're impressed by such an ordinary magic?

 But it can't be helped.

 What would you think if a person living in a world without the concept of electricity suddenly saw TV or the Internet? It is possible that they would be stunned, if not incontinent. But in our world, electricity is normal, and we have been accustomed to it since we were small children. That's why I'm not surprised.

 Magic is no different. There are probably plenty of people in this world who would make fun of me. But I want to tell you something. Try coming from a world without magic. You may say it's just a light. But for me, it's a floating light that doesn't use electricity.

It's amazing!

 I turned on the light, turned it off, turned it on again, and turned it off again. Each time I turn it on and off again, my thoughts grow stronger.

 I want to know more about magic.

 I reach out to the light that has been created and put my hand over it as if to wrap it. Then I slowly open my hand and stare at the light, which never fades. As I did this, something smoldering in my heart gradually ignited.

 I want to see and use all kinds of magic. And I want to master this mysterious magic. I want to stand at the top of the wizard world.

The pinnacle, huh?

 If Kosuke Takioto is as good as the game says he is, he is at a considerable disadvantage. But even so, I want to aim for it. What if I don't aim for it? What if I don't aim for the top?

I've made up my mind.

 I've made up my mind.

I don't know how long it will take, but I will defeat the members of the Student Council, the Public Discipline Association, and the Ceremonial Council, as well as the three powerful ones, and in the end, I will be the hero who grows up to the point where he can defeat even the Demon King solo.

The main character grows so much that he can defeat even the Demon King solo. Let's knock that cheat down."
